As Mr. O’Connell noted, the <PSE> mark is required on the plug, connector and cable. If you are trying to minimize the number of different cords, you can find some cords with Japanese and North American approvals. Volex is one supplier that has these cords <http://w w.volexpowerproducts.com/index.php?opti n=com_ecatalog&task=plugdetails&classid=1&countryid=1&plugid=63&Itemid=31> . I am not specifically endorsing this supplier; I am only noting them as one of the vendors with a cord with multiple approvals.
As Mr. McDowell noted, China will require CCC approval on plugs, connectors and the cable. Taiwan will require BSMI on the plug, but typically does not require marking on the cable and connector. Korea will require the KC mark approval on the plug, but I don’t think it is needed for the cable and connector. I believe that for safety, Korea has transitioned from KTL/KETI marking to the KC mark. You will likely need the Singapore safety mark for the plug, but not for the cable or connector.
